TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 is launching a new Real World AI Stage alongside its existing AI Stage to cover the intersection of AI with physical systems like autonomous hardware, robotics, and industrial applications. The event runs October 13–15 at San Francisco's Moscone West, featuring sessions on safety-critical AI deployment, edge computing, and scaling deep tech from prototype to production. The expansion reflects how AI has become so widespread that one stage can no longer contain its applications across defense, robotics, space hardware, and biological engineering.
